Please reach out to Mrs Taylor with your availability and book your appointment by calling 250-339-1200 or emailing office@gaglardiacademy.ca. It would be so helpful and appreciated. Thanks!

Jeans Day fundraiser results

Jeans Day fundraiser results

Jeans Day was fun! It was so much fun that we didn't get any photos of students and staff wearing their jeans. Which everyone pretty much did, by the way. But though we lack in photos, we have an abundance in funds raised which was the whole point anyway. The amount raised was $553.70. Thank you so much for your generosity to Care-a-Van who run an essential service in our valley.

COVID-19 Vaccines for Children Ages 12-17

Our delightful director wanted to give you this recent Covid vaccine news so you could make informed decisions for your family:

The Ministry of Health has issued a news release on the provincial vaccine rollout for children between 12-17 years old,
including how children and their parents/caregivers can register and book their vaccine appointments. BCCDC has also
developed an information brochure, with additional details on the vaccine program for children. More information is also available on the BCCDC website.

PS. There is a daily health check application (K-12 Health Check) for parents and students to help them determine if they should be attending school or not. The application is available online as a mobile-enabled website, an IPhone application, and a Google Android application.

Need information on school events?

The website calendar is the easiest way to find about school events and activities. And since it's always being updated, make sure to check it often. Bookmark the page for even easier access or subscribe!

PS. Important dates for the 2021-22 school year have already been added to the website calendar. This means that if you're hankering to know when Spring Break is, you can find out without even picking up the phone! See, I'm always thinking about you. :D
